I loveee the 3 whips! WOW!
-
Zmeskal, Retton, Johnson, Moceanu, Dawes, Nadia,Korbut, and Teza. All greats to me. I dont know if any of you are a fan of just tumbling, but there are a few out here that are bad. Kiara Nowlin, Whitney Love, Angel Rice and thats just to name a few. Check them out. They are awesome. Kiara has been tumbling since she was like 3. Had colleges offering her scholarships at 9. Check it out.

Kim was always my favorite, but always choked....

3 whips in a row. you don't see that anymore!
-
@jewellssweety Ummm, what were you watching? She was NEVER in first!
-
@WaterEngel4 yup I think it was, but NYCBlonde could be right too, all those songs sound alike lol
-
@NYCBlonde totally agree, just because they look like little girls doesn't mean they should do little girl choreography.
-
love that second pass!

I've always thought the choreography was fantastic, Kim was the first Gymnast I ever saw that you could really tell was moving to the music. And FINALLY some music that had a little pizzazz, instead of over orchestrated, meditative-put-you-to-sleep classical pieces that had naught to do with what the girls were doing on the floor. I've never seen such power delivered so undenighably feminine.

*Shudder* Her tumbling is terrific. The choreography? Embarrassing. All the Karolyi athletes had the same horrible 'ography--hand on swivel hips, lots of "chin up," cutesy factor to 10. So, so horrible--trust your athlete, Bela, let them do something better!
Kim was such a great tumbler, but Karoyli's girls always had the cheesiest choreography. This routine is just a little to cutesy wutesy for me...

The tumbling run at :55 with the roundoff backhandspring, triple whipovers, backhandspring and double back in pike is simply awesome! I recall watching Kim on TV way back then as she prepared for the Olympics. I believe it was the first time I saw a gymnast perform the whipover move.
